Heartbeat has officially flat-lined. Variety reports NBC has cancelled the medical drama after one season.
The series centers on Dr. Alex Panttiere (Melissa George), a cardio-thoracic surgeon trying to juggle her personal and professional life. Dave Annable, Don Hany, Joshua Leonard, Jamie Kennedy, D.L. Hughley, Shelley Conn, Maya Erskine, and J. Louis Mills also star.
Nearing the end of its first season, Heartbeat has continued to fall in the ratings. The series began strong, receiving a 1.39 in the 18-49 demo and 6.304 million viewers for its March premiere. However, the show is currently averaging only .85 in the 18-49 demo, with 4.631 million viewers.
The season one, and now series, finale airs on May 25th.
What do you think? Do you watch Heartbeat? Do you think it should’ve been renewed?
I too think this show deserves another season. Most of the episodes proved to be interesting and humorous at the same time.
I loved it – why couldn’t they have given us some resolution at the end? I was rooting for Harrison……
Heartbeat is refreshing. Love the show & its subtle comedy. NBC cancels good shows too soon, doesn’t give them a chance. PLEASE DON’T CANCEL THIS SHOW. This is one of the reason people don’t invest in watching new NBC shows; we get hooked & before you know it, NBC decides to cancel it. No wonder ABC & CBS FARE BETTER IN THE RATINGS!!!
Please renew. I love the show. Drama
with some comedy put in. The characters are excellent. With some of the shows that are coming on, I won’t even need my tv. I’m older than your 18 to 49 age bracket and am tired of the dumb reality shows that are on. Please reconsider. Completely different from the other medical shows that are on. Like I said, the little bit of comedy put makes it different. Love this show.
Please don’t discontinue heartbeat! It’s a great show, but only a few know of it. I’m doing my best to spread and share with my friends! I don’t want it to go to waste when there’s so much potential for this show! Give it another shot, please! Kudos to Heartbeat!!!
I love heart beat and believe it should be renewed there are to many good shows being canceled and bad realty and dumb comadys being kept.
I love this show! This is the best new program I have seen in a long time. Outstanding cast and storylines. Please give a second season! This show deserves a chance to get going. One season isn’t enough!
I have to agree with @Linn Driessen. Every time a good show appears they seem to be cancelling it and all the rotten shows keep running. It is insane . I loved this show and now its cancelled. What a waste of time and effort, especially for the characters and people who watched it !!!
Every time NBC gets a great show, they cancel it after one season. Yet they keep Law & Order that should have been put to rest long ago. Heartbeat was an excellent show. To me it compared to Grey’s Anatomy. Which is hard to do. I was just starting to watch shows on NBC, Heartbeat and Game of Silence. I do follow The Voice. But not Chicago Med or Nightshift. I have watched both but theY do not compare to Heartbeat. I so hope you reconsider. I am already leary about the Voice with Miley Cyrus as a coach. PLEASE… Read more »
Please please please bring this series back! If not on this network, I can see it working on Fox.
It’s a great show! Anytime a good show that fans connect with the execs who have no clue cancel it. Heartbeat had real heart and deserves to continue!
Love this show! Please don’t cancel! It’s smart, funny and heart wrenching! Give it a chance!
I looked forward to the show and enjoyed it more as it went along. Please reconsider your decision to cancel.
Noooo!! Please don’t cancel Heartbeat!! Season finale had an awesome cliffhanger!! They can’t leave the fans of the show hanging. I’m really enjoying this new show. Love how strong willed & compassionate the female lead doctor is! I need more of this fun show!!
Please bring back Heartbeat! As a medical professional, I can appreciate the premise of the show. Character development is great, interesting and realistic plots, dialogue from the heart, and so much more! So many people love it yet it hasn’t been given a chance. I watched Night Shift once and never again. Heartbeat caught me from the start. If you won’t bring it back, sell it to NETFLIX they seem to give their series the supper they need to thrive.
